WASHBOILER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Nov. 12, 1907.

Application filed March 21, 1907. Serial No- 363.605

To all whom it may concern: 7

Be it known that I, .IAKOB MOHR, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, Richmond, county of Richmond, State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Washboilers, ol which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a wash boiler which produces a superior circulation of the suds, so that the wash is quickly and thoroughly cleaned.

In the accompanying drawing: Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal central section ol my improved wash boiler; Fig. 2 a plan of the same, with one of the ends broken away and the cover removed; Fig. 3 a vertical cross section through the lower part of the boiler on line 3-3, Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 a bottom view of the false bottom and adjoining partsv Within a boiler 10 is removably mounted a false bottom 11 provided with a perforated circumferential flange 12. This flange constitutes the foot of the false bottom and forms an outer suds chamber 13 between it and the bottom 1-1 of boiler 10. Along the center of false bottom 11 extends a longitudinal tube 15, coinmuuicating at each end with an upright tube 1.6, that carries an inwardly extending nozzle 17. Tube 15 has a central cut-away section 18 to form a lower opening that communicates with an inner suds chamber 19 formed below false bottom 11 by an inner flange 20,

depending from such false bottom. Flange 20 is shorter than flange 12, so that the outer suds chamber 13 communicates with inner suds chamber 19. Across this inner chamber extends a partition 21 which projects also across the open section 18 of tube 15. False bottom ll is perforated between its flanges 12, 20, as at 22, but not within flange 20.

In use, the Wash is placed upon false bottom 11 and the suds, when boiling, will flow irom chamber 19 through pipes 15, 16, and nozzles 17 upon the Wash, and thence through perforations 22 and the openings of flange 12, into outer suds chamber 13. From this outer chamber the suds will pass beneath flange 20 into the innersuds chamber 19, to resume the circulation.

I claim:

A wash boiler provided with a false bottom having an outer flange, an inner flange of less height than the outer flange, said false bottom being perforated only outside the inner flange, a transverse partition within the inner flange, a tube extending along" the false bottom and open only within the inner flange, pipes communicating; with the ends of the tube, and nozzles on the pipes, substantially as specified.
